I'm having So much fun with the colorblind challenge
I don't know how to articulate this well, but I really fucking hate the way a lot of thin writers write fat characters. Like how men write women "breasting boobily" there is something so dehumanizing about how fat characters are often written. "He waddled", "he lumbered", the writer of the book I'm reading always mentions this characters "fleshy hand" when he does something with his hand. Like, we already know that he's fat. There is no need to describe everything he does as "doing it fatly".
I pretty much have resigned myself to just not being able to look up any DragonAge videos on YouTube. Curious about a specific scene? Nope. Gonna have to wade through "THIS IS THE CRINGIEST DIALOGUE" with a screencap of Taash. It can literally have nothing to do with what I even looked for. Are folks still this upset over that? There's enough ragebait out there as it is, but at this point its just goofy.

Y’all seen these videos
not to be dramatic or anything but this makes me wanna commit crimes
plz reblog for sampo size :3
Random but I love when Taash handles things. They might be young and a bit confused around some stuff but they're nothing close to unprofessional and that's genuinely such a fun and compelling character dichotomy to have.
I don’t understand Taash hate
I don’t know if I’ve said this before but I occasionally see people say “oh Taash is rude and mean, and they don’t respect others yet expect respect with their pronouns”
The respect part especially gets me because correct me if I’m wrong Taash never demands respect from anyone except maybe the Dragon King and their mom. Even with their pronouns, I don’t even think they do as much as correct anyone even in the scene with Isabela when they get it wrong
They’re not even rude either because like a lot of times when they’re talking about what other companions do, for example Emmirich’s “death mage stuff” and “corpse stuff”, it’s very clear, or very clear to me, they are saying it like that because they don’t know anything about it, the same way I would call what an IT guy does “computer stuff”
(Also used Emmirich specifically as an example because I’ve noticed Emmirich girlies, no offense to Emmirich girlies, get really defensive about anything that’s even sorta negative towards him. Seen it with Taash and Harding’s interactions with him but this is off topic.)
And if Taash is too mean of a companion for you to even consider liking them??? Bro this the game being criticized for everyone being too nice if they’re too mean I think you’d go into cardiac arrest hearing any companion dialogue from the previous 3 games. Not specifically someone like Morrigan or Fenris literally any of them
Honestly the way Taash acted in Veilguard reminded me of how Karlach acts in BG3 except Taash is just a lot more chill and less energetic
Also to say Taash has the worst story in the game is insane when Harding’s exists (no disrespect to Harding I just think that her questline sucks)
Back on the Emmirich topic except it’s on topic with Taash, Taash being weirded out or cautious about the shit Emmirich does is literally the most normal reaction to Necromancy.
After Veilguard, Manfred continues to learn and grow just as he did before, as a being in the living world and also as a mage.
And he starts to gain more independence, and to learn from teachers apart from Emmrich.
And, eventually, he becomes a full member of the Mourn Watch, and then a senior member.
And he takes on his own proteges, spirit and living, and teaches them everything he’s learned.
And, one day, Emmrich dies.
And Manfred, as his son, tends to his body and his grave with the same reverence for the honored dead that Emmrich taught him.
And as long as Manfred remains in the world, he carries on Emmrich’s legacy in his own actions and those of his endless chain of students, each one given the love and care and support that were the foundational gifts his father gave him.
This, too, is immortality.
